Black Cohosh
for Menopausal Symptoms
Standardised black cohosh root extract (20–40mg twice daily) for hot flushes and menopausal symptoms.
How it works
Mechanism not fully established. May act on serotonin receptors and opioid pathways involved in temperature regulation rather than through oestrogen-like activity.
What to watch for
Not recommended for those with liver disease or hormone-sensitive cancers. Rare but serious liver reactions reported — discontinue if yellowing of skin or eyes occurs.
